All,
Lightdm has been working fine up until pacman update today. After the
update, lightdm fails with a garbled screen. The journal shows:

Lightdm.log shows the same:
[+0.01s] WARNING: Error getting user list from
org.freedesktop.Accounts:

What changed and what must be done to fix it?
Fyi using lightdm 1.32.0-4 with lxqt I do see the same (warning) errors
in my loggings.
But I do not experience errors logging in with lightdm.
Also last lightdm update on my arch system was in september last year.
Maybe the cause lies elsewhere ?
